Capo 2


D
He said I’ll see you later baby
                    Cadd9
I should be home by six tonight
D                    Cadd9
Then just like every other morning
   G                                    D
He blew her a kiss and he waved goodbye

    D  
She went to town to do some shopping
D              Cadd9
Had lunch with her best friend
D               Cadd9
Typical Tuesday afternoon 
  G                        D
Until that awful call came in


CHORUS:
D
Nobody knows the hour
D      Cadd9 
Nobody knows the way
D      Cadd9
On any given day 
      G              D 
we’re only six feet away


They say he never knew what hit him
The other driver was on the phone
But how it happened ain’t what matters
He ain’t coming back – he’s gone gone gone


Chorus


Bridge:
Bb                             C
I can’t help but wonder was he in the wrong place
G
Or right where he was meant to be
Bb               C                     G
Someday death is gonna stare us in the face
G                              D
Where and when is the mystery


Chorus
